Sllaacs can be forgiven for thinking the Raiders lost to the Chiefs at Arrowhead this year. But it just feels like last week's win in Denver was the first of the year. Nancy Gay (predictably) said what's in the back of all Raider fans' minds about this home game against a team the Raiders destroyed earlier in the season that comes one week after their most complete and satisfying game of the year. But I say Cable keeps them focused and they avoid a "letdown." Raiders 31-20.

As it turns out, the Bills aren't as good as we thought they were. I could actually see the Niners beating them, but probably not in the cold Buffalo weather. Bills 27-21.

I'm not sure what's up with the Packers, and after dropping the Carolina defense (yes, this is a Fantasy Football statement) in disgust over their blowout at the hands of Atlanta, I'm shocked to learn that the Panthers are 8-3. Going with the Packers to win at home, 35-28.

And the Jets - wow. This season has to put Brett Favre over the top for the Hall of Fame. (Yes, that's a joke). Denver will lose 31-21 and keep the Raiders mathematically alive for the AFC West crown. I'd love to see someone win it at 7-9.
